Our fully funded girls' football programme, which we run to support the growth of women's football in Türkiye, will also begin operating at our Ankara and Izmir campuses next season.
Programme lead Sarah Collins said: "There is serious potential in Türkiye when it comes to girls' access to football. Our job is to remove the barriers in front of that potential, which is why we offer the programme completely free of charge."
All female athletes aged 8-17 may apply. There are no prerequisites and athletes with no prior experience are also accepted.
Last season, three athletes from our programme transferred to the youth structures of clubs in the Turkish Women's First League.
